Mitsubishi Motors Lineup At 43rd Tokyo Motor Show 2013

TOKYO – Nov 4, 2013: Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) will
unveil three world premiere concept cars at the 43rd Tokyo Motor Show 2013
from November 20th. Incorporating a new design that symbolises the
functionality and reassuring safety inherent to SUVs, the three concepts
take as their theme MMC's @earth TECHNOLOGY and point to the direction
MMC's development and manufacturing will take in the near future.

The MITSUBISHI Concept GC-PHEV is a next-generation full-size SUV with
full-time 4WD. It is based on a front engine, rear-wheel drive layout
plug-in hybrid EV (PHEV) system comprising a 3.0-litre V6 supercharged
MIVEC engine mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission, with a
high-output motor and a high-capacity battery to deliver all-terrain
performance truly worthy of an all-round SUV.

The MITSUBISHI Concept XR-PHEV is a next-generation compact SUV
developed to take driving pleasure to new levels. The MITSUBISHI Concept
XR-PHEV uses a front engine, front-wheel drive layout PHEV system that is
configured with a downsized 1.1-litre direct-injection turbocharged MIVEC
engine, a lightweight, compact and high-efficiency motor with a
high-capacity battery.

These two concepts feature PHEV systems optimally tailored to different
market and segment requirements.

The MITSUBISHI Concept AR is a next-generation compact MPV which
combines SUV manoeuvrability with MPV roominess. It uses a lightweight mild
hybrid system which comprises a downsized 1.1-litre direct-injection
turbocharged MIVEC engine.

All three concepts feature MMC's latest "e-Assist" active safety
technologies and the advanced "connected car" technology that utilises
next-generation information systems. These functions include a danger
detection system which activates the corresponding safety functions and a
failure/malfunction early-detection system which urges the driver to seek
repairs or other maintenance.

Including the three concept models, MMC will be displaying a total of 17
models (13 on press days) at its booth at the 43rd Tokyo Motor Show 2013.
Joining the concepts will be the new eK Space "super height wagon" minicar
due for launch in Japan at the beginning of next year, motorsport vehicles
and some current production models.
